Well, here's something I never thought I'd see again, let alone be able to film - an MSL collecting garbage right here in Kennewick! This truck typically handles a manual recycle route, which is how I always figured this truck would get it's KZfaq debut, but to my amazement, due to some truck and personnel shortages over the past couple of weeks, this truck and it's driver have had to go help out on garbage on a couple of occasions! To my knowledge, the last time an MSL collected garbage in Kennewick was clear back in 2009 when the old Volvo WXLL Wittke Express was pulled out as a last resort spare - an occasion which I was also lucky enough to get on video! Needless to say, I was beyond stoked to be able to catch this. As many of you know, I grew up watching MSL's and the occasional rear loader handle semi-automated take-all collection, up until 2005 when the take-all service was discontinued and automated collection was phased in. So getting to see this was just like taking a step right back into my childhood. This will quite likely never happen again, so naturally, I made sure to accumulate a true wealth of footage. This is just the first of several parts to come, but the rest will be saved for a good long time ;) Until then, I hope you enjoy this truck's introduction!
